APRIL 14-16: CHALLENGING SAGITTARIUS MOON

MOON IN SAGITTARIUS from 6:27am EDT on Friday, April 14 until Sunday, April 16 at 2:26pm. LAST ASPECT OF MOON: Moon Conjunct Saturn in Sagittarius. Our natural exuberance and optimism during the Jupiter-ruled Sag Moon may feel deflated now with serious Saturn in the picture. Saturn's archetype of constriction and karmic lessons can dampen anyone's enthusiasm - even to the degree of depression. We may not express our true feelings, especially with women. It is possible, however, that we are able to focus on Saturn's more positive symbolic interpretation: Sagittarius' Mutable Fire quality, which can take the form of exaggeration or self-inflation, can be supported by Saturn's reality check bringing us back down to earth. Get a respected objective opinion from another. Find some kind of container/ grounding for your wise intuitive powers now and the stars are the limit! Unless you do, actions initiated during this period are more likely to have CHALLENGING results.

NOTE: The effects of this Moon are likely to feel heightened because of Saturn's presence at 27 Sag, which is considered the current location of the Galactic Center. Because such strong gravitational and electric forces are thought to emanate from the GC, the experience of our emotional life is likely to be stronger than usual and perhaps more meaningful. Our Sagittarius intuition may be right on the mark now. Try to take pause for consideration. Sagacity comes from the same root as this zodiacal sign. According to the Merriam Webster Dictionary, the Latin adjective sagus means prophetic. SEE PREVIOUS POST FOR MORE INFORMATION ON SATURN AT THE GLACTIC CENTER.

SCENE FOR THE DAY: The Empire Strikes Back 1980; Director: Irvin Kershner; Story by: George Lucas. Mentioning the Force of the Galactic Center can take us nowhere else but the unforgettable sagacious teachings of the magical creature Yoda. In this scene he trains Luke, played by Mark Hamill, about the power of belief and the invisible 'stuff' of which we are made. That the quote related to this Force has become a globally understood expression is not only an indication of its believed potent reality, but of the power of story and cinema to disseminate it.
